Please note that there is some building work being undertaken in the vicinity. It has no impact on the views from The Potting Shed. Noise levels are kept to a minimum, but you may notice a small amount of noise at certain times and never during anti-social hours. We live close by (closer than the Potting Shed is to the building work) and can personally vouch for this. Any questions, please just ask.
